Globally, NAS has a presence in more than 60 airports, handling seven out of the world’s top 10 airlines and operating more than 50 airport lounges across the Middle East, Asia, and Africa. As the company grows its presence across the globe, it also continues to drive efforts towards maintaining the highest levels of safety and quality in all operations. With this goal, the company aims to have all its stations accreditation in due course. Currently, 7 out of NAS’s 26 airport ground handling operations are ISAGO accredited.
